Honesty’s Nazi PHP Learning Camp: (First Day)

Would be coders are chained to their desks, while they moan over their bloody hands and whipped backs.

“Okay, you punk bitches. In order to learn PHP, YOU WILL learn how to install Apache.”

One of the novice coders speaks softly, “Um, do we get to eat afterwards?”

“That is yet to be decided, pending your innate ability to comprehend OOP.”

I believe that is the package that I used more than 2 years ago. I'm done with doing the whole installing a web server on my main computer action. Once I get my second machine up (missing a Graphics Card), I want to install a web server for local testing. I do repository work that would be too much work uploading the directory to a web server for testing. Initial testing must be done at my end. Thank you!

May I recommend XAMPP from ApacheFriends.org? I host on Dreamhost too: Debian based machines. I develop on Win2K. I found XAMPP to be a single packaging of Apache, PHP (4 and 5, user swithcable), MySQL, plus a brace of other normally Unix hosted web server tools to be the best Windows configuration. Give it a shot. Difficulty using Apache on Windows? May I recommend XAMPP from ApacheFriends.org?
